Former Penn State President Graham Spanier could face criminal charges in relation to the Jerry Sandusky case now that prosecutors have uncovered new evidence, NBC News reported this morning.

According to NBC, prosecutors uncovered emails sent in 2001 in relation to what former assistant coach Mike McQueary reported he saw in a Lasch Building shower. McQueary, a graduate assistant at the time, testified that he saw Sandusky doing something that appeared to be "severe" and "sexual" in nature.

Emails uncovered by investigators suggest Spanier conferred with former Senior Vice President for Finance and Business Gary Schultz, saying it would be humane to Sandusky to not alert authorities, NBC news reported.

In a statement, Penn State spokesman David LaTorre said the emails were uncovered in the process of the internal investigaton of Penn State being conducted by former FBI Director Louis Freeh.

In deference to the legal process, the University cannot comment further on specifics of the ongoing legal case as it unfolds. We continue to work with the State Attorney General, the US Attorney and Judge Freeh in their investigations into this matter, the statement read. We will continue to cooperate fully with all legal processes to determine what happened and ensure personal accountability.

Attorneys representing Schultz and former Athletic Director Tim Curley, both charged with perjury and failure to report suspected abuse, released a statement this morning saying the new evidence shows that their clients conscientiously considered what was reported to them by McQueary.

[Curley and Schultz] reported it to the University President Graham Spanier, and deliberated about how to responsibly deal with the conduct and handle the situation properly, the attorneys said in the statement.

Graham Spanier is the fired former president of Penn State University as well as former Chancellor of the University of Nebraska. Remember the Franklin scandal at Boys Town in Nebraska during the 1980's? Similar to the Second Mile.

I remember reading that the people of Nebraska considered him very liberal and they were happy when he left for Penn State.

They "deliberated"? What the heck is there to "deliberate"? Call the police and report what you know or even suspect.

Even left-leaning college administrators are starting to have second thoughts about the excesses of "gay-friendly" atmospheres on campus........these pedophile-havens have held numerous "homo-sensitivity training" sessions on campus......(read indoctrination).

Penn State's ex- prez Graham Spanier---is a "human sexuality scholar." How this guy got to be a college prez with that degree is amazing.

SPANIER actually held what he called a "C***fest" on campus and installed a special tent just to indoctrinate WRT homo sex practices.

Spanier is out as PS prez---but he and his wife are still on the PS payroll as tenured profs. Spanier also advocated wife-swapping----could be the reason why M/M Spanier are still getting paychecks---they must have some hair-raising stories to tell WRT group sex play on the PS campus.

M/M Spanier----looking for same-sex action?

=============================================

MILLION IN STATE AND FEDERAL EDUCATION GRANTS WERE CONTROLLED BY GRAHAM SPANIER We need to determine the extent of PS's federal, state and local government grants which emanate from an assortment of governmental entities. Besides the DOE, grants could have been issued by the EPA and DOJ for various campus projects----including monies private Foundations from a variety of private charitable organizations AND funding from more traditional sources, such as corporate and private foundations.

A full list of donors might be available from the Capital Research Center, a non-profit organization which studies advocacy groups.

Finally someone says it. I have been thinking this for a while. Out of everyone with the exception of Sandusky, I can’t stand him second. I find him to be a little snot nosed kid who did not do what was right and now he is yelling from the roof top what happened. Well the jerk sure was quiet prior to the media....he thinks his crap don’t stink, well, I think he is worst of everyone except for Sandusky.

In other words they deliberated about how best to make it go away without doing anything.

Spanier recently said he had accepted a position with a federal government agency. Turns out it is the NSA. I guess it makes sense that a guy who gets fired for covering up criminal activity gets a cushy high paying job with NSA. He obviously has friends in high places.

Pa pedophile ping.

Here's hoping they nail all of the cockroaches infesting Penn and the enablers in the State that allowed it to happen.
